Seashell Summer Mantle & Catching Up

Here is my "seashell" mantle for the summer. The white shell shaped vase is from Sandy. She found it when we were out shopping. It's perfect for my vignette!

Let's catch up...Monday-Wednesday, I was helping at summer Bible camp at church. I helped with snack time for 96 kids! That was interesting! Grand girl helped too. Tomorrow we will be finalizing the menu for daughter's wedding!!! It's just 2 months away! We want to have another garage sale within the next couple of weeks...so that means going through more boxes...I rearranged the living room...not sure how well I like it. The TV is in the way! LOL!! I asked hubby if we could have just 1 TV and he laughed!!! We don't like too many of the same shows. We have one in the living room and one in the family room. Got my haircut and it's not quite the way I want it....not dropping the weight as I want to....and today was Mark's funeral. His 2 boys talked about their dad and how Mark's christian life was a blessing to them! The song "I Can Only Image" was song and that brought tears to my eyes. SO, really life is GREAT! and I am so BLESSED!

It is a perfect summer day and the doggies will enjoy their walk tonight!
warmly,
deb

Your mantel is so cute, I did a beach / summery theme on our buffet, I'll do a post soon! Lol How exciting for the wedding getting so close, it will be so lovely! Busy busy!! :) Have a great day! xo Holly

Love your mantel! I'm enjoying some blues and shells in my cubbies right now! Only two months to the wedding...it will be here before you know it. Life is busy and I'm glad you are taking the time to enjoy your blessings. Hugs, Linda

Hi Deb, your summer mantel is gorgeous. I love the shells and the beachy display. I also have this going on this summer and am enjoying it. Sounds like you had a busy week.So sorry about your friends passing. My sympathies to you and his family.Have a great weekend.Hugs and Blessings

You sound so busy..your mantel is so pretty I love the shells I have so many shells living in the Gulf of Mexico you collect quite a few since the beach is 15 min away.I hate funerals but I love that song I can only imagine it always brings tears to my eyes too.

Hi Deb! I love your mantle! I Have a box of nice shells in my classroom, and just the other day I thought, I need to get them out of there. What a super cute way to decorate your mantle! I have a similar vase, but it is pink. It would look cute with shells, too. Hope your weekend is fun!

I still have patriotic decor on my mantle. I keep thinking I'm going to find time to switch over to summer and haven't. It sounds like a very busy time for you and yet you were able to assist with VB school. An emotional funeral. Thinking of you!

LOve your beachy mantle. Ive been doing all my beachy decorating too. .hopefully this weekend I'll get some pictures posted. Im leaving all this beach stuff up til I decorate for halloween.. changing all this stuff up every couple months is a huge job! lol!have a great weekend my friendxoxovivian
